I recently participated in this Fast Company roundtable interview about political cartooning in a broken media landscape. I have to say, the sample art that they chose from my comic for the feature image is perfectly timed.
what a great article - though depressing - thanks for sharing.
and this quote - "I’m getting a quarter of what I might’ve got for something 15 years ago." - YIKES

By popular demand, a single post to boost global switch day across multiple platforms on February 1st 2025.
For those who can no longer get behind Musk or Meta's new policies and feel like switching (e.g. from #Whatsapp to #Signal, from #Instagram to #Pixelfed or from #X to #Mastodon) I made you some graphics to use freely in communicating with your contacts.
Let’s lead by example 🙂
At the request of many of you (no experience yet myself) herewith additional graphics to boost global switch day across multiple platforms on February 1st 2025.

Let's celebrate the occasional small happenstance of wonderfulness, beloved.
Because it makes me stupidly happy when one of my Reddit comments from three years ago, trying to help someone with a library barcode question, suddenly becomes useful to someone two days ago. And they left a little thank you to let me know.
See there? That's the kinda thing that helps promote what I like to call "humanity.” Literally made my day, and I mean that. 😃

in reply to utopiArte • • •Over here on friendica 2024.12 the audio isn't displayed either.
I had expected that this would be some kind of activityPub convention of transmitting information about if a video or audio format is part of the content.
If I'm not wrong, when posting a mp3 URL like the following, the audio player is displayed right away:
media.tupambae.com/audio/bauhe…
(well, in the preview that's not the case)

in reply to utopiArte • • •The views on mastodon of the ways the audio posts are displayed.
The orginal #castopod #podcast publication shows up in the preview as a video with the general podcast cover. If the play button is selected, the window changes into a audio replay option window. No download option,
@bitPickup@cast.tupambae.com itself is set as "prevent copy".
The MP3 audio URL posted in [audio] BBCode brackets by @utopiarte
shows up as a different (black) audio file reproduction window. A download option is displayed.

@utopiArte @Castopod :podcasting2:
The post from castopod is encoded as a "Note" ActivityStream object:
there is no indication of something that should be played, there is only the link in the text content.
Now, mastodon get the first link it find in post and try tho show a preview, I think using OpenGraph.
Friendica sometimes does it also, I don't know the details and I don't know why it doesn't show a preview for this. I'm pretty sure that it will not show a player anyway.
The point is: there is nothing in that Note object which says "it's a podcast". It's just a note that an episode is published, with a link to it. The fact that mastodon show the player is unrelated from the fact that the note links to a podcast. I'm sure the fact the link is the first thing in the note is a deliberated choice by castopod devs, to take advantage of Mastodon's behavior
Yes there is: attachment property. But then Friendica will shows attachments as icons at the end of the post. Still without a player.
Castopod devs chose to create their ActivityStream object of type 'PodcastEpisode', which you can get requesting the AS version of the episode page
But this is not a standard object, and Friendica (and I think many other services) does not know how to display it, failing back to render the "content", losing the link to the audio file.
A note with a link is a reasonable way to post something understandable by everyone.
Fabio
in reply to Fabio • • •@Castopod :podcasting2: @utopiArte Mh, quick correction. if the link to the audio file is in an "attachment" property, friendica will show the player. Just as in this post
But from a semantic prospective (acting like I know what it means), the audio file is not attached to the note, but to the episode.
